P1 Preparation

Last Thursday, it was  the day scheduled to go to Zyan's intended primary school for preparation work. It was scheduled at 2.10pm.

I took leave.

Morning, brought Zyan to Science Centre. It's free to citizems on non-peak days. Means not school holiday lah. I cheapo 1 mah. Hahaha
It's the second time I brought him there. The first time also due to some event that Zyan didn't go to school, so have to find things to make him occupied.

This time, we cannot do full day like the last time. Had to go pick Karinna at around 1pm, before we head for lunch and then to Ngee Ann Primary School.

Still, he had his fun share at Science Centre. He ran around like a monkey. Hand so itchy, everything also want to press. :P
Chanced upon this table, and he wanted me to help him take a picture of his body-less head. :P

There's some kind of Marvel theme happening at end of the month of something. So there's a hulk exhibition there. I think it is starting this coming weekend.
Anyway, won't be there again so soon lah.

There he had fun, playing with the exhibition. He didn't read much to the science of how some of the things work. Kids mah.
There's a demostration of how powerful electricity can be.
It can wireless-ly light up some light tubes. It can also burst balloon from a distance (not so far away lah).
The balloon is filled with hydrogen (if I remember right, is 15 times lighter than air), and when the current starts, the 2 balloons burst into flame and poof!
Helium is about 6 times lighter. But Hydrogen is combustible.

Anyway, we only spent about 1.5 to 2 hours there, and before we left, he had some fun taking picture of himself. Voila!

Soon after, left the place and went to pick Karinna up.

Anyway, we reached the school before 2.10pm.
Filled up some forms for his P1 preparation.
Giro application to pay his school fees.
Edusave account approval to deduct any other fees that may be required.
blah blah blah.

Of course, not forgetting purchasing the school books, school uniform, name tags etc.
Some books are not available yet, but already paid for, and will get it when the school starts.
Add this add that, just for the books and uniforms and shoes blah blah, it was probably close to $300.
Terok right?
Still have to check out school bus, and also after-school care service within the school.
Can only have more idea on 18 Nov, which is the orientation day for the P1 students and parents. :P

After getting all the P1 preparation done, went to Changi Village for a drink, and let him catch a bit of pokemon. At that hour, no special pokemon appear.
I do not know about the spawning of specific pokemons, so it is just pure luck (or no luck for that matter). LOL

Then headed to IKEA. His final playground for the day.
Not sure how long more he can play at IKEA playground. The height limit is between 90 - 130 cm.
He is already 120+ cm, so maybe next year would be too tall to enter, unless the staff there can close 2 eyes for little children that are taller. :D
When  the time comes, then I will know.

Anyway, we had our dinner at IKEA before going home.
At least, for now, we are more or less ready for P1 next year.
